Default 48 merc question
I am trying to figure out what I am missing on my 48 merc convertible. I set the old rear arm rest on the car and now I wonder what is supposed to be at the bottom. The arm rest does not reach the floor and leaves an unsightly hole. Anyone know what I am missing? A picture would be great.

Second look I see the cover but the one you shows on the right should go on the left, it will then finish the panel
